NovelEnglishIt had to be Aurelia. She and Kevin were in cahoots to drive her insane.
That was the only explanation.
"I'm going to kill Aurelia..." She clutched at her hair, repeating the phrase over and over like a broken record. Her madness was flaring up again.

"I'll find a way to bust you out, and then you can have your revenge on Aurelia." At the mention of escape, Megan's eyes lit up like fireworks. "Getout, quick!" She couldn't stand another day in this place.
On the weekend, Aurelia had invited Lisbeth and Beverley to Magnolia Heights to discuss wedding plans.
The Stirling family always celebrated their big occasions at Magnolia Heights.
Servants cforward, carrying a bridal gown.
"Lisbeth, this dress just arrived from Paris yesterday. Why don't you give it a try?" Lisbeth disappeared into the room and emerged transformed.
"Wow, you look stunning!" Beverley clapped her hands in delight.
Lisbeth managed a faint smile, but Aurelia noticed she lacked the excitement and joy of a bride-to-be. Her demeanor was far too composed.
"I really like this dress," Lisbeth confessed after changing back into her clothes and sitting next to Aurelia.

A hunky and handsman appeared on the screen, holding roses and kneeling before Lisbeth. "Lisbeth, | love you. | want you to be my wife, to spend the rest of our lives together..." "Oh my God, it's a proposal video from Raines!" Beverley gasped, covering her mouth in shock.
The man in the video was none other than the genuine Raines, looking drastically different from his current self.
Tears streamed uncontrollably down Lisbeth's face.
It was an edited video, filled with sweet moments of their ttogether.
Aurelia smiled. "I got these videos from Raines' best friend in Goldendell and put this together as a surprise for you both." She paused, then added, "You can tell if a man loves a woman by the look in his eyes. Raines has such a deep and syrupy look when watching Lisbeth. He's totally smitten, no doubt about it." "Absolutely," Beverley nodded vigorously. "When Raines looks at Lisbeth, it's like she's his whole world. Lisbeth, you're so lucky." Lisbeth stood up from the sofa, looking a bit pale. "Excuse me, | need to use the restroom." As she left, Aurelia and Beverley exchanged glances. Beverley raised her voice a bit. "To find a soulmate is to find the one with whom you can grow old. It's not easy to find someone who truly loves you in this world." Aurelia added, "In this flashy and superficial world, true love has becthe rarest of commodities. Those who find it are indeed blessed by the heavens. Out of a billion people on Earth, you might only find one true pair. If a woman meets a man who truly loves her, she shouldn't let him go, or she'll regret it for the rest of her life." Beverley continued, "Raines always said if he found the woman he truly loved, he'd cherish her, keep her close to his heart, and make her the happiest woman in the world, without a single grievance..." They were wagering on Lisbeth's enduring feelings for Raines. After all, five years of intimate, day-to-day living must leave semotional residue, unless Lisbeth was utterly heartless.
It was a long while before Lisbeth returned from the restroom. Her face was ashen, her hand on her belly, and a drop of blood trickled down her leg.
